Bestop TigerTop

Any install tips on these babies? Mine just arrived today, which was awesome as I ordered it Saturday!

Instructions look pretty straight forward, but I'd certainly listen to the sage wisdom of any who've done it before!

If y'all are interested, I can photo-doc the install this weekend (hopefully).

Thanks,
Herb

Re: Bestop TigerTop

Sorry no words of wisdom on that top. I installed a best top on a CJ7 jeep the other day. The instruction were good and the top went on nicely. Good Luck and post some pics when you get it done.

Re: Bestop TigerTop

Thanks - will do.

I've had lots of experience with Bestop on Jeeps and have always been impressed - heck, they make the factory Jeep tops!

I started on the unpacking and inventory tonight and it seems fairly straighforward, but there are lots of areas that could 'make or break' the final fit. I will be drilling all of the holes for the snaps, for instance. First hick-up is the line on step one that states "Using the bolts from the factory hardtop...." DOH - what top? LOL

Thanks,
Herb

Re: Bestop TigerTop

I've only installed the [former] STC Fastrac. Just take your time and measure twice before you drill anything.
